There are 4 cups in 1 quart and 4 quarts in 1 gallon. A baker needs 1 cup of milk for each batch of muffins he makes. He has 3 gallons of milk and wants to make as many batches as possible. How many batches will the baker make?

48 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversions in the question:

1 quart = 4 cups

1 gallon = 4 quarts

Based on above:

1 gallon = 4 quarts = 16 cups

Converting gallons of milk to cups of milk:

Available milk = 3 gallons = 3 gallons * 16 cups/gallons = 48 cups

As each batch requires 1 cup of milk and 48 cups are available, the baker can make 48 batches of muffins, assuming there are no other limiting ingredients.
